1Yonke imiphefumlo mayiwalulamele amagunya awongamileyo. Kuba akukho gunya lingelilo elivela kuThixo; amagunya ke akhoyo amiswe nguThixo.

2Ngoko ke, umntu olichasayo igunya umelana nommiselo kaThixo;

3Kuba abaphathi aba asingabokoyikwa kwimisebenzi elungileyo, ngabokoyikwa kwemibi, ungawoyiki na ke amandla? yenza okulungileyo, wodunyiswa kwalilo;

4kuba lingumlungiseleli kaThixo, wokuba kulungele wena. Ke, ukuba uthe wenza okubi, yoyika; kuba alifumane aliphathe ikrele; kuba lingumlungiseleli kaThixo, umphindezeli ngengqumbo kowenza okubi.

5Kungoko ndithi, kufuneka ukulilulamela, ningakwenzi oko ngenxa yengqumbo yodwa, nikwenze nangenxa yesazela.

6Kungenxa yoko le nto ninikela irhafu; kuba ngababusi bakaThixo, bezingisa ukusebenza loo nto.

7Ngoko ke bonke banikeni okubafaneleyo: lowo kufuneka irhafu kuye, mnike irhafu; isiko kubani; ukoyika kofanelwe kukoyikwa; imbeko kofanelwe yimbeko.

8Musani ukuba natyala lanto mntwini, lingelilo elokuthandana; kuba omthandayo omnye uzalise umthetho.

9Kuba oku kuthi, Uze ungakrexezi, uze ungabulali, uze ungebi, uze ungangqini ubuxoki, uze ungakhanuki; Ukuba ke kukho wumbi umthetho, uqondwa ngokufutshane kweli lizwi lokuthi, Uze umthande ummelwane wakho ngoko uzithanda ngako.

10Uthando alusebenzi bubi kuye ummelwane; ngoko ke uthando luyinzaliseko yomthetho.

11Ke oko masikwenze, silazi nje ixesha eli, ukuba lilixa ngoku lokuba sivuke ebuthongweni; kuba ngoku usindiso lukufuphi kuthi, kunokuya saqalayo ukukholwa.

12Ubusuku buhambile, ukusa ke kusondele. Masiyilahle ngoko imisebenzi yobumnyama, sixhobe iintonga zokukhanya.

13Masihambe sinyanisekile, njengasemini; kungekhona eburheletyweni, nasekunxileni, kungekhona eburheletyweni;

14Yambathani ke iNkosi uYesu Kristu;
